Hyderabad witnessed another chaotic crowd scene on Sunday as actor Samantha Ruth Prabhu<\/a> was mobbed by fans while leaving a saree store launch in Jubilee Hills. Footage showing Samantha struggling through a surging crowd, with security personnel guiding her to safety, has triggered widespread concern. <\/p>\n

The incident comes just days after Nidhhi Agerwal<\/a> was similarly surrounded by an uncontrolled crowd at a mall in Kukatpally during a promotional event for the upcoming Prabhas-starrer The Raja Saab. Both incidents have raised alarms over fan behaviour, crowd safety, and event management at public gatherings. While neither Samantha nor her team has issued a statement so far, online reactions reflect growing frustration over unruly fan behaviour and the lack of adequate security measures at celebrity events.Female actors react to <\/span>mob attacks<\/span> <\/p>\n

Chaithra J Achar, actor: Looking at the recent incidents and the videos from Nidhhi \u2019s event, it\u2019s clear that no matter how many men were trying to protect her, there were far more, often many times over, surrounding her and touching her in ways that made her uncomfortable. Knowing a celebrity\u2019s popularity, it should be the organisers\u2019 duty to ensure safety through measures such as separate exits and proper crowd management. In Samantha\u2019s case as well, incidents like these make us more cautious, and even anxious, about attending public events. Personally, I choose to avoid places or gatherings where I\u2019m not confident about the crowd or the organisers. <\/p>\n

\"Renu<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Renu Desai<\/a>, actor and producer: This isn\u2019t limited to public events. Even during a recent visit to the Kashi temple, some people recognised me and approached me for selfies, even touching my shoulder. What was particularly disturbing was that some of them were women. I wish people would see us as human beings, respect our private lives and understand boundaries. We need audiences to watch our films\u2014that is part of our profession\u2014but that does not mean we should be manhandled, mobbed or groped. Consent should always be sought before taking a selfie or touching someone. <\/p>\n

\"Akshara<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Akshara Gowda, actor: When I saw the incident on social media, I was shocked! It was deeply disturbing. Nidhhi\u2019s clothes were almost pulled apart; it was hard to even watch. It\u2019s upsetting because people don\u2019t seem to consider that she could be someone\u2019s daughter or mother. This is how they view a female actor, as someone they feel entitled to. Just because we play glamorous roles doesn\u2019t mean we are available or that it\u2019s acceptable to touch us. Incidents like these are extremely disturbing, and I hope people learn to respect female actors, while event organisers take responsibility for managing crowds and ensuring safety.Police protection is not automatically provided to celebrities and must be formally arranged. In mobbing cases, responsibility lies with the event organiser or venue owner. If crowd members misbehave, charges are filed based on the offence, though a complaint from the celebrity is usually required. In certain cases, police may also take suo motu action.\u2013 S Venkat Reddy, Asst. Commissioner of Police, Banjara HillsRecent instances of female actors being mobbed:<\/span>Sreeleela (7 April 2025): Sreeleela was pulled into the crowd by a fan during a Darjeeling shoot with Kartik Aaryan, but her team swiftly intervened and saved her.Janhvi Kapoor (17 August 2025): Janhvi appeared visibly uncomfortable after being pushed and mobbed by fans at a dahi handi event in Mumbai.Nidhhi Agerwal (17 December 2025): Nidhhi was hounded by fans during a song launch event in Hyderabad.<\/div>\n
